I absolutely love getting my workout done early in the day. Mainly because I know that something will come up later in the day that will make it more difficult or impossible. Like other moms I know, there is a sometimes a feeling of guilt when I prioritize my wants/needs.
But I know that if I do not get my workout in, the day will be hell for everyone! It is the one thing that I do for myself on an almost daily basis. And it helps to relieve some guilt when I remind myself that making myself healthier and clearing my mind will also benefit my family.
Even though I workout early, I LOVE making sure that I (and my family) continue to be active throughout the day. One hour in the gym does not mean you can sit on your butt or sleep the other 23 hours!!!
During the weekdays I usually take my son to the playground to run around, to the outdoor mall or to the community pool. On weekends, post-gym, he gets a special treat. This past Saturday was a fun Mommy and Tyler day at Dinosaur World in Plant City, FL.
Climbing Tires...well prepared with his tank top and Nike sneakers!...
...Quick Break To Watch The Koi Fish...
...Running Away From T-Rex...
...AHHH...T-Rex Got My Little Guy!...
...Fueling Up With A Kashi Bar...
...One Last "Ride" On A Dinosaur...
...On The Way HOME, I'm Pooped!
Good thing I got my energy boost before Dinosaur World so I didn't need a nap on the way home too!
Best of Health,
